REGISTERS  OF  THE   PARISH    OF 
ST.  MARY.  STOCKPORT. 


THE    CHURCH. 

THE  Parish  Ciurch  of  Stockport,  dedicated  to  St. 
Mary  the  Virgin,  must  have  had  a  very  ancient 
foundation,  for  Stockport  having  been  an  important 
stronghold  in  the  Roman  and  Saxon  periods,  it  is 
only  reasonable  to  infer  that  there  was  a  church  and 
consecrated  burying  ground  in  connection  with  the 
Castle.  There  is  no  mention  of  it  in  the  Domesday 
Book,  but  the  devastation  of  the  district  by  the 
Normans  soon  after  the  Conquest  is  sufficient  to 
account  for  the  omission.  Upon  this  subject  we 
learn  from  Ormerod's  "  History  of  Cheshire"  that 
there  can  be  little  doubt  that  a  church  had  existed 
here  which  was  the  head  of  a  most  extensive  parish 
before  the  Conquest. 

Of  the  earlier  churches,  says  Dr  Hegin- 
botham  in  his  "  Stockport,  Ancient  and 
Modern,"  there  are  no  records  or  remains, 
but  the  structure  which  preceded  the  pre- 
sent, and  of  which  the  existing  chancel  formed  a 
part,  was  erected  early  in  the  fourteenth  century. 
The  church,  CDnsisting  of  tower,  nave,  and  chancel, 
was  built  of  red  sandstone,  tlie  prevailing  geological 
formation  of  the  district,  and  was  a  very  venerable 
structure,  standing  upon  the  site  occupied  by  the  the 
present  church.  In  1810,  the  insecure  state  of  the 
tower  of  the  old  church  and  the  fall  of  part  of  the 
embattlements  on  the  south  side  of  the  nave  led  to 
an  application  to  Parliament  for     "An  Act  for  re- 


pairing or  rebuilding  the  Parish  Church  of  Stock- 
port, in  the  County  Palatine  of  Chester,  and  for  re- 
building the  Tower  thereof  ;  and  for  making  a 
cemetery  or  churchyard  for  the  use  of  the  Parish." 
This  Act  was  passed  in  1810,  and  steps  were  soon 
after  tanen  for  carrying  the  Act  into  effect. 

When  the  tower  and  nave  had  been  demolished 
and  removed,  arrangements  were  made  for  laying 
the  foundation  stone  of  the  new  structure,  and  July 
5,  1813,  was  selected  for  that  purpose.  The  stone 
was  laid  at  the  south-east  corner  of  the  town  by 
Wilbraham  Egerton,  Esq.,  M.P.,  grandfather  of  the 
present  Lord  Egerton  of  Tiitton.  The  rebuilding  of 
the  church  occupied  nearly  four  years,  and  the  first 
sermon  was  preached  therein  April  6,  1817,  by  the 
Rev.  Edward  Howell,  curate.  The  church,  however, 
was  not  consecrated  until  July  4,  1817,  on  which 
occasion  the  sermon  was  preached  by  the  Rev. 
Charles  Prescot,  B.D.,  the  rector.  The  total  cost  of 
rebuilding  the  church  was  £42,886  3s  l|d. 

On  October  29,  1882,  the  church  was  again  re- 
opened after  having  been  renovated  and  decorated 
under  the  able  guidance  of  Mr  J.  S.  Crowther,  of 
Alderley,  the  architect  who  has  in  hand  the  remodel- 
ling of  Manchester  Cathedral.  Under  his  direction 
the  whole  of  the  old  box-pews  were  removed  and 
the  present  open  sittings  substituted.  The  gallery 
on  each  side  was  lowered  about  eight  inches,  whilst 
that  at  the  west  end  occupied  by  the  organ  and 
choir  was  entirely  removed.     The  gable  was  pierced.

and  in  it  lias  since  boon  inserted  the  present  beauti- 
ful stained-glass  window  by  Mr  R.  IJ.  Lingard- 
Monk,  as  a  memorial  to  liis  late  wife.  The  organ 
was  placed  in  the  Lyme  and  I'rinnington  Ciiapol 
after  being  thoroughly  cleaned  and  overhauled. 
These  alterations  cost  about  £4000. 

THE  KTAIXED  GLAS.S. 
The  memorial  wiiulows  are  seven  in  number, 
four  in  the  chancel,  twni^  in  the  nave,  and  one 
in  the  galile  of  the  tower.  The  east  window  of  the 
chancel  is  the  most  conspicuous,  and  is  a  fine  speci- 
men of  the  decorative  art.  It  consists  of  six  great 
lights,  above  which  are  trefoils  and  quatrefoils, 
surrounded  by  bold  and  flowing  tracery.  It 
represents  the  leading  events  in  the  life  of  our 
Saviour.  The  others  are  memorial  windows,  and 
are  all  of  chaste  design.

commencement  of  the  Registers— Ursula,  daughter 
of  Ralph  Ardi'rneof  Harden,  Bredbury,  by  whom  he 
had  ten  children.  His  own  burial  is  thus  recorded

The  Registers  of  the  Ancient  Parish  of  St.  Marj-, 
Stockport,  contain  much  that  is  quaint,  curious,  and 
interesting  to  the  antiquarian,  genealogist,  and 
general  reader. 

THE    REGISTERS. 

These  Registers  date  from  1584,  being  some  years 
later  than  tho.se  of  the  neighbouring  parishes  of 
Cheadle,  Northenden,  and  \Vilmslow.  They  are, 
however,  exceedingly,  Tuliiaunous,  consisting  of  no" 
.fewer  than  seventy-six  volumes.  <^hese  are  weU 
written,  and  in  an  excellent  state  of  preservation. 
Up  to  the  commence  neat  of  1883  the  Registers  con- 
t  lined  the  records  of  64,183  baptisms,  32,537  mar- 
riages, and  63,924  burials.  The  first  volume  is  a 
thick  parchment  folio,  dating  from  1534  to  1628. 
There  is  no  division  between  baptisms,  marriages,  or 
burials  ;  each  is  entered  as  it  took  place.  For  the 
sake  of  clearness,  however,  these  have  been 
separately  placed  under  each  month,  and  the  date  of 
the  event  brought  to  the  front  in  chronological  order. 

In  every  other  respect  the  orthography  has  been 
adhered  to  as  closely  as  possible,  whereby  the  reader 
is  enabled  to  note  the  various  forms  of  spelling 
local  names  during  the  earlier  years  of  registration. 

The  first  page  of  this  volume  of  the  Registers  is 
prefaced  with  the  following  entry  ; — 

A  true  and  perfect  Register  of  all  those  that  have 

bene   christned  maried   and   buried  in  the  parish 

church 

of  Stockport  which  beginneth  the  twentie  and  fifte

On  referring  to  Earwaker's  Eit/t  Cheshire,  the 
following  particulars  relating  to  this  member  of 
the  Davenport  family  are  found  :  William  Daven- 
port was  the  only  son  of  Sir  Williim  Davenport, 
Knight,  and  Margaret,  daughter  of  George  Booth, 
of  Dunham,  in  whose  Inquisition  podt  rnoi'lem., 
held  1576,  the  son  was  entered  as  being  34  years 
of  age  ;  this  would  bring  his  age  at  the  time  of 
death,  September  6,  1585,  to  be  43  years.  The 
William  Davenpoit  whose  death  is  above  recorded, 
married  Margaret,  daughter  of  Richard  Ashton, 
of  Middleton,  and  by  her  was  father  of  six  sons 
and  one  daughter.  His  eldest  son,  William,  who 
succeeded  to  the  estates,  and  was  subsequently 
knighted,  served  as  High  Sheriff  of  Cheshire  in 
1604;  another  son,  Humphrey,  was  also  knighted, 
and  eventually  became  Lord  Chief  Bar^n  of  the 
Exchequer.  The  Margaret  Davenport  who  was 
buried  on  Septembet  4,  15S5,  as  shewn  above, 
was  granddaughter  of  the  William  Davenport 
buried  this  day,  being  the  second  child  of  his  son 
William,  then  aged  23  years.  She  would  be  abou 
six  months  old.

22. — Willm  Bowker  of  Bramhall  had  a  chylde  baptized. 

This  double  entry  evidently  has  reference  to 
the  same  child,  only  that  in  the  Register  there 
are  three  other  entries  between  them.  As  will 
be  seen  below,  it  is  followed  by  a  marriage  on 
the  same  date,  the  same  marriage  being  entered 
again  under  the  25th.  To  make  it  plainer  I 
give  the  entries  in  the  order  set  down  in  the 
Register  as  follows :

The  entries  that  are  in  duplicate  I  give  in 
italics.  It  will  also  be  observed  that  two  of  the 
names  in  the  marriage  entry  are  spelled  different 
to  those  in  the  first  entry,  and  that  there  is  a 
difference  of  three  days  in  the  date.

The  Henry  Bradshaw  whose  marriage  is  here 
recorded  was  the  eldest  son  and  heir  of  Henry 
Bradshaw,  who  purchased  Marple  Hall  and  lands 
in  Marple  and  Wybberslegh  from  Sir  Edward 
Stanley,  K.B.  He  in  turn,  by  his  marriage  with 
Katherine  Winnington,  became  the  father  of 
Henry  Bradshaw,  a  colonel  in  the  Parliamentary 
Army,  and  of  John  Bradshaw,  the  famous  judge. 
Henry  Bradshaw's  wife  Katherine  was  the  last 
of  the  Winningtons  of  Offerton,  being  the 
youngest  daughter  and  co-heiress  with  her  sister 
Anne  (afterwards  married  to  Lawrence  Wright, 
of  Mottram-St.-Andrew)  of  Ralph  Winnington, 
of  Offerton.  She  died  January  34, 1603,  after  ten 
years  of  married  life.    Her  children  were  — 


1.— William,  baptised  January  2, 1596-7 ;  buried 
November  19, 1.597,  at  Hlockport. 

2. — Henry,  baptised  at  Stockport  January  23, 
1600 ;  buried  there  March  15,  1661,  having 
been  twice  married. 

3. — John,  baptised  at  Stockport  December  10,

6. — Anne,  baptised  at   Stockport  November  9, 

1599,  and  married  John  Fallowes,  of  Fallowes 
Hall,  Alderley. 

Henry  Bradshaw,  the  father  of    these  children, 

continued  to  live  at  Wyberslegh   Hall  until  the 

death  of  his  father  at  Marple  Hall,  which  event 

took  place  in  January,  1619-20.      Respecting  his 

three  surviving  sons  given  above  they  are  best 

remembered  by  the  following  verse  afterwards 

made  in  the  judge's  name  : — 

My  brother  Henry  must  heir  the  land  ; 
My  brother  Frank  must  be  at  his  command ; 
Whilst  I,  poor  Jack,  shall  do  that 
Which  all  the  world  will  wonder  at. 

Henry  Bradshaw  died  in  1654,  and  was  buried  at 
Stockport  August  3  in  that  year,  having,  along 
with  his  sons  Henry  and  John,  taken  a  prominent

WERE  MARIED  THE  IItH. 

Turning  to  Earwaker's  East  Cheshire  (ii.  127; 
we  find  that  Jolin  Hyde  was  collated  to  the  living 
of  Mottiam-in-Longdendale  June  4,  1575,  by  Dr 
Downham,  Bishop  of  Chester,  and  that  he  held 
the  living  for  over  sixty  years.  He  was  twice 
married,  first  at  Mottram  on  February  26, 1575-6, 
to  Alice  Reddich,  of  Mottram.  She  died,  and  was 
buried  at  Mottram,  March  21, 1593-4, and  on  May 
22,  1597  (so  says  Mr  Earwaker)  he  married  for  his 
second  wife  Anne  Hyde.  It  will  be  observed  that 
the  Stockport  Registers  record  the  event  as  taking 
place  on  May  11, 1597.  Hyde  was  rural  dean  of 
Macclesfield,  and  as  such  each  page  of  the 
Mottram  Register  transcripts  are  endorsed  by 
him  as  "  Dean  of  Macclesfield."  The  vicar  died 
in  1637,  and  was  buried  in  Mottram  as  is  testified 
bv  the  following  entry  in  the  Eegisters :

Between  the  entries  for  June  and  July,  1597,  we 
have  the  following  written  in  large  capitals,  and 
cut  off  from  other  matter  by  being  double  ruled 
top  and  bottom. 


THESE  NAMES  HEEREAFTER  FOLLOWING 
WERE  REGlSfEREU  BY  THOMAS  SIMKIN 
SINCE  HI.S  FIRST  COMING  TO  STOCK- 
PORTE,  VIZ.:  1304199 


At  the  commencement  of  the  transcription  of 
these  Registers  it  was  stated  that  the  first  portion 
of  the  first  volume  was  but  a  copy  of  some  pre- 
vious Register.  This  opinion  has  been  asserted 
to  be  erroneous.  The  above  entry,  if  further 
proof  were  needed,  is  sufficient  in  itself  to  set  the 
matter  at  rest.  Tne  first  volume  begins  in  March, 
1584,  and  ends  in  1628,  and  it  written  by  one  man 
in  what  is  termed  Elizabethan  court  hand,  and  is 
most  uniform  throughout.  Now  Simkin  did  not 
succeed  to  the  duties  of  parish  clerk  until  this 
date — July,  1597 — therefore  the  entries  made  by 
him  in  the  parchment  book  from  March,  1584,  to 
-  June,  1597,  as  directed  by  law,  had  to  be  tran- 
scribed from  some  previous  Register,  not  in 
accordance  with  the  regulations  issued  by 
Lord  Cromwell  in  1538.  Many  of  the  pages 
of  this  earlier  portion  of  the  first  volume 
bear  out  this  assumption,  the  entries 
during  that  period  containing  blanks  for  unde- 
cipherable names,  duplicate  entries  of  the  same 
event,  transpositions,  interlineations,  etc.,  such  as 
might  be  expected  when  copying  from  loose 
sheets  of  paper.  As  will  be  found,  during  the 
forty -five  years  that  Simkin  was  clerk,  the  entries 
are  more  complete  and  there  are  fewer  dis- 
crepancies. Simkin  died  in  1642,  the  following 
entry  being  made  in  the  Registers  that  year  : 

1642.  Bur.  June.  Thomas  Symkin,  "the  good  Clarke 
of  Stockport,  who  served  the  place  there  45 
years,  was  buried  the  9th.

The  children  Thomas  Wright  and  Henry  Brad- 
shaw whose  baptisms  are  recorded  above  were 
cousins.  Dr.  Ormerod  in  his  Histo,'y  of  Cheskii-t 
(iii.  696)  makes  no  mention  of  the  above  Thomas 
Wright  in  the  pedigree  of  that  family,  but  records 
the  name  of  another  son  baptised  at  Stockport 
July  6,  1602,  also  named  Thomas.  Of  the  sub- 
sequent career  of  the  second  Thomas  Wright 
little  is  known  save  that  he  was  living  in  1649. 
The  Thomas  Wright  whose  baptism  is  given 
above  died  and  was  buriPd  at  Stockport  April 
24,  following,  having  just  lived  three  months. 

Of  Henry  Bradshaw  much  more  is  known.  He 
was  second  son  of  Henry  Bradshaw  nf  Wib- 
ber.-legh,  and  subsequently  of  Marple  Hall,  his 
mother  being  Catherine  daughter  of  Ralph 
Winnington,of  Offerton,  her  only  sister  being  the 
mother  ot  the  above-mentioned  Thomas  Wright. 
Henry  Bradshaw  whose  baptism  is  here  given  was 
an  elder  brother  of  John  Bradshaw,  known  as  the 
Regicide,  and  he  played  an  equally  prominent 
part  in  the  affairs  of  the  nation.  The  name  of 
Henry  Bradshaw  appears  as  the  first  signature

10.— JOHN  THE  SONNE  OF  HEN'kYE  BRADSBAW 
OF  MARPLE  WAS  BAPTIZED  TBE  irrrH.  traitctr. 
Thus  we  have  the  entry  in  the  8U}ckpon  Parish 
Registers  of  the  baptism  of  John  Bradshaw 
President  of  Cromwell's  High  Court  of  Justice, 
before  whom  Charles  I.  was  tried,  and  by  whom 
his  death  sentence  was  pronounced.  In  order, 
that  readers  of  Cheshire  Notes  and  Queries 
may  have  an  idea  how  the  original  entry  appears 
in  the  old  parchment  volume,  we  have  been 
enabled  by  the  kindness  of  Mr  H.  Heginbotham 
J.P.,  of  OffertOQ.  to  insert  a  facsimile  : 
The  engraving  is  the  work  of  Mr  Robert  Langton 
F.R.H.S.,  of  Manchester,  and  was  executed  for 
Dr  Heginbotham's  Stockport:  Ancient  and  Modem 
now  approaching  completion,  and  to  Dr  Hegin- 
botham our  readers  are  indebted  for  an  oppor 
tunity  of  inspecting  a  most  faithful  copy  of  this 
now  historic  record. 

The  story  of  Judge  Bradshaw's  life  has  often 
been  told,  and  the  more  it  is  investigated  the 
better  does  it  become.  Space,  howevr  r,  will  only 
admit  of  giving  but  a  brief  outline  at  this  place. 
Reference  has  already  been  made  to  the  marriage 
«f  his  parents  (see  February  4,  1593-4),  to  the 
baptism  of  his  two  elder  brothers,  William  and 
Henry  (see  January  2,  1596-7  and  January  23, 
1601),  and  to  the  burial  of  his  brother  William 
(see  November  19,  1597,  of  these  Registers). 
There  was  also  a  sister  older  than  John,  whose 
baptism  is  given  under  November  9, 1599.  The 
place  of  John  Bradshaw's  birth  is  uncertain,  that 
event  by  some  being  located  at  Marble  Hall,  and 
by  others  at  Wybterslej;h  Hall,  in  the  same  neigh- 
bourhord.  This  uncertainty  can  be  best  ex- 
plained by  taking  a  brief  glance  at  the  position 
of  the  family  at  this  period.  At  the  time  of  John 
Bradshaw's  birth,  there  were  no  fewer  than  three 
Henry  Bradshaws  residing  in  the  neighbourhood 
of  Marple,  these  being  respectively  brother, 
father,  and  grandfather  of  the  embryo  judge. 
Henry  Bradshaw,  senior,  was  living  at  Marple 
Hall,  which  estate,  together  with  that  of  Wybbers- 
legh,  he  had  acquired  by  purchase  from  Sir 
Edward  Stanley.  On  the  marriage  of  his  eldest 
son  and  heir,  Henry  Bradshaw,  junior,  to 
Katherine  Winnington  (father  and  mother  of 
Henry    Bradshaw,    ter,  and    of   John),    it    was

necessary  to  provide  them  with  a  separate  estab- 
lishment. Thus  it  was  that  Wybberslegh  Hall 
was  set  apart  for  the  young  people,  and  here  it 
may  safely  be  inferred  they  continued  to  reside 
until  the  death  of  the  first  Henry  Bradshaw, 
which  event  took  place  in  January,  1GI9-20,  at  a 
time  when  John  Bradshaw  would  be  seventeen 
years'  old,  and  when,  ia  all  probability,  he  would 
be  a  foundationer  at  the  Stockport  Grammar 
School,  under  the  then  head  master,  Luke  Mason, 
together  with  his  brothers,  Henry  and  Francis. 

Of  the  boyhood  of  John  Bradshaw  nothing  is 
known ;  but  the  following  verse,  said  to  have 
been  scratched  by  him  on  a  window-pane  at 
Marple  Hall,  is  an  indication  of  the  ambition  that 
filled  his  youthful  breast,  and  at  the  same  time 
displays  a  faculty  for  prevision  that  was  remark- 
able.   The  verse  referred  to  tells  us  that — 

My  brother  Henry  must  heir  the  land : 
My  brother  Frank  must  be  at  his  command ; 
Whilst  I,  poor  Jack,  shall  do  that 
Which  all  the  world  will  wonder  at. 

On  leaving  Stockport  Grammar  School  he  pro- 
ceeded to  one  at  Bunbury,  Cheshire,  when  he 
would  doubtless  make  the  acquaintance  of 
Edward  Burghall,  pars'>n  and  schoolmaster  there 
and  whose  diary  of  the  civil  war  is  one  of  the 
most  interesting  records  we  have  of  that  period- 
From  Bunbury  John  Bradshaw  went  to  Middle- 
ton,  in  Lancashire,  thence  to  Gray's  Inn,  to 
study  law.  He  was  called  to  the  bar  of  his  Inn 
April  23, 1627,  and  to  the  bench  of  that  society 
June  23,  1645,  when  he  was  appointed  Judge  of 
the  Sheriff's  Court,  London.  It  is  thought  he 
acted  for  some  years  as  a  provincial  counsel,  as 
he  lived  for  a  time  at  Congleton,  and  served  the 
office  of  Mayor  there  in  1637,  and  was  afterwards 
high  steward. 

He  was  appointed  chief  justice  of  Chester  in 
March,  1647,  and  at  the  great  move  in  legal  offices 
shortly  before  the  trial  of  Charles  I.  the  House  of 
Commons  ordered  that  there  should  be  a  new  call 
of  serjeints,  such  order  stUing  "that  Mr  Brad- 
shaw, of  Gray's  Inn,  be  a  member  [October  12, 
1648]."  Shortly  afterwards  he  was  promoted  to 
the  rank  of  Commissioner  in  the  New  High  Court 
of  Justice,  and  on  January  10, 1649,  he  was  fur- 
ther dignified  with  the  title  of  Lord  President 
of  that  court.  The  trial  of  King  Charles  began 
January  20,  1649,  and  Clarendon  (vol.  vi.,  218) 
says  he  administered  the  office  "  with  all  the 
pride,  impudence,  and  superciliousness  imagin- 
able." It  must  be  remembered,  however,  that 
Clarendon  was  the  King's  most  trusted  friend  and 
counsellor,  and,  consequently,  regarded  this  scene 
and  its  actors  in  a  different  light.    As  chief  judge 


at  this  trial,  Bradshaw  was  the  first  to  sign  tb« 
warrant  for  the  execution  of  the  King  after  he 
had  passed  8ent«nce.  This  warrant  is  X/t  be  seen 
in  the  British  Museum.  In  the  subsequent  trials 
ef  the  Duke  of  Hamilton,  the  Earl  of  Holland,  and 
others,  Brad»haw  continued  to  act  as  Lord  Presi- 
dent, and  the  Dean's  house  at  Westminster  was 
given  him  as  a  residence  with  a  donation  of 
£5000.  As  a  further  recompense  for  his  services 
at  the  various  trials  an  ordnance  was  passed 
settling  upon  him  £2000  a  year,  and  his  appoint- 
ment as  Chief  Justice  of  Chester  was  renewed. 
In  addition,  he  was  made  Chancellor  of  ihe 
Duchy  of  Lancaster  and  a  member  of  the  Council 
of  State. 

A  friend  to  pure  democracy,  he  strenuously 
opposed  the  efforts  of  Cromwell  to  engross  all  the 
powers  of  State  into  his  own  hands,  and  eagerly 
thwarted  his  measures.  When  Cromwell  recon- 
structed Parliament  upon  a  basis  of  manhood 
suffrage,  in  1654,  Cheshire,  which  hitherto 
had  but  two  representatives,  was  represented  by 
four,  and  one  of  these  was  Judge  Bradshaw.  The 
Protector,  feeling  the  force  of  Bradshaw's  opposi- 
tion, endeavoured  to  get  rid  of  him  by  creating 
him  a  peer,  but,  says  Clarendon,  he  refused  to 
be  won  over  by  such  lures,  and  continued  in  a 
state  of  sulky  opposition  during  the  remainder  of 
Oliver's  protectorate.  Foss,  however,  states  that 
Cromwell  purposely  omitted  his  name  on  account 
of  the  distaste  that  existed  between  them,  and 
that  it  was  in  consequence  of  Cromwell's  action 
in  the  matter  that  Bradshaw  was  defeated  when 
he  contested  the  election  in  Cheshire  in  1656.  On 
the  death  of  the  Protector  Cromwell,  however, 
Bradshaw  was  returned  as  one  of  the  members 
for  Chester  to  Richard  Cromwell's  Parliament,  in 
1659. 

When  Richard  Cromwell  had  been  deposed  and 
the  Commonwealth  again  proclaimed,  Bradshaw 
accepted  office  as  one  of  the  Commissioners  of  the 
Great  Seal,  swearing  "  to  be  true  to  this  Common- 
wealth, without  a  single  person,  kingship,  or 
House  of  Lords,"  but  in  a  few  weeks  he  had  the 
mortification  of  seeing  the  supreme  power  in  the 
hands  of  the  militaiy,  which  was  only  a  preli- 
minary to  the  restoration  of  Charles  II. 

Judge  Bradshaw  only  survived  this  scene  a  few 
weeks,  for  he  died  at  the  Deanery,  Westminster, 
October  31,  1659,  having  suffered  considerably  in 
health  consequent  upon  the  great  menta  strain 
he  had  undergone.  He  was  interred  with  great 
pomp  in  Westminster  Abbey,  bis  funeral  sermon 
being  preached  by  John  Rowe.  On  the 
restoration  of  Charles  II.  his  body  and  the  bodies 
of  Cromwell  and  Ireton,  both  of  which  had  been

deposited  in  the  same  place,  were  (January  30' 
1660-1)  diiinterred,  and,  with  every  nourk  of 
obloquy,  were  dragged  on  sledges  to  Tyburn,  at 
which  notorious  spot  they  were  gibbclod,  then 
beheaded,  their  trunks  being  thrown  in  a  hole 
at  the  foot  of  the  gallows,  and  their  heads  ex- 
posed on  poles  on  the  top  of  Westminster  Abbey. 

At  a  meeting  of  the  members  of  the  Lancashire 
and  Cheshiie  Antiquarian  Society,  held  at  Marple 
Hall  in  the  summer  of  1886,  Mr  J.  Eglington 
Bailey.  F.S.A.,  of  Stretford,  exhibited  a  copy  of 
Milton's  Defensio  secunda  pro  Populo  Aw/licano, 
published  in  1654,  containing  at  page  106  the 
noticeable  reference  in  grave  and  emphatic 
language  to  Johannes  Bradscianus,  nobili  familia 
ut  satis  noUim  est  ortus — "  a  name  consecrated  by 
Liberty  to  immortal  renown  in  every  country 
where  her  power  is  acknowledged."  In  this 
eloquent  tribute  to  the  career  of  his  friend  (said 
Mr  Bailey)  Milton  exhibits  much  familiarity  with 
his  private  as  well  as  his  public  character.  "  In 
domestic  life  to  his  utmost  power  he  (Bradshaw) 
is  hospitable  and  splendid  ;  amidst  all  the  vicissi- 
tudes of  fortune  a  friend  most  faithful  and  firm ; 
instant  and  eager  to  acknowledge  merit  where- 
ever  it  is  discovered,  as  well  as  most  munificent 
to  reward  it.  The  pious,  the  learned,  the  emi- 
nent in  every  walk  of  genius,  the  soldier,  and 
the  hero,  are  either  relieved  by  his  weal  h  if  in 
distress,  or,  if  otherwise,  are  cherished  by  his 
kind  attentions  and  regard." 

Bradshaw's  character  has  been  deeply  coloured 
by  his  connection  with  the  trial  of  King  Charles, 
and  such  books  as  the  History  of  the  King  Killers 
and  the  "  poor,  little,  brown  lying  Flacjellum,  " 
present  him  in  the  blackest  light.  Yet  his  Re- 
publicanism was  as  staunch  as  that  of  Milton, 
and  was  evidenced  by  his  protest  to  Cromwell, 
.April  30, 1653,  when  that  Dictator  dissolved  the 
Long  Parliament.  "  No  power  under  heaven," 
said  Bradshaw,  "  could  dissolve  them  but  them- 
selves; therefore  take  you  notice  of  that!"  It 
was  unfortunate  (continued  Mr  Bailey)  that  but 
very  few  personal  papers  or  memoirs  were  left  to 
indicate  Bradshaw's  true  character  and  to  guide 
the  critic  to  an  accurate  delineation  of  it.  But 
there  is  an  exception  in  the  case  of  Lis  will, 
dated  March  22,  1653  4,  which  indirectly  tells  us 
much  of  his  springs  of  action.  The  exordium 
was  very  striking,  and  seemed  to  caution  us 
against  too  readily  believing  that  this  portion  of 
the  ancient  wills  was  copied  from  forms  or 
models  in  books  of  precedents.  The  gravest 
moments  of  a  man's  life,  when  he  is  called  upon 
to  review  his  relations  to  his  Maker,  his  family, 
and  friends,  is  not  a  moment  when  he  stands  in 


need  of  borrowed  language ;  for  his  feelings 
prompt  the  sentiments  of  his  heart.  The  open- 
ing sentences  in  theso  old  testaments  often  ex- 
press the  spirit  and  philosophy  of  a  maa'a  life. 

In  the  name  of  God.  Amen.  I,  John  Bra/l*hawj 
Sergeant-at-law,  and  Chief  Justice  of  Che»t«;r,  t^lng 
in  good  health  and  perfect  memory,  pral»e<l  be  God, 
yet  Benaible  of  the  uncertaintye  of  thin  fraile  life,  find 
itt  (itt  and  convenient,  having  through  grac*  thi« 
opportunitie  lent  mce  U)  make  and  declare  my  la«t 
will  and  testament.  First,  I  bequeath  my  »oule  to 
Almighty  God  trusting— through  faith  in  the  blood  of 
Son  my  .Saviour— to  be  made  partaker  of  everlasting 
life,  and  that  my  sinnes  being  graciousl.'  pardoned  I 
ehall  appeare  clothed  in  the  righteousness  of  Chriet. 
my  elder  brother,  to  whom,  with  the  Fa' her  and  the 
Blessed  Spiritt  be  glory  and  prayse  for  ever.  My  iK/dy 
I  commend  to  the  earth  to  be  interred  in  decent  and 
christian  buriall  at  the  discretion  of  ray  executor  if  I 
dye  neare  her,  otherwise  of  such  servants  as  shal  be 
about  raee,  without  observing  the  vanitie  of  any 
funerall  pompe. 

The  will  is  chiefly  concerned  with  the  adminis> 
tration  of  the  large  property  which  the  testator 
had  acquired  in  the  counties  of  Middlesex  and 
Kent  from  the  confiscated  estates  of  the  Royalists. 
The  spirit  of  the  document  shows  that  he  was  a 
just  and  benevolent  man.  He  was  bountiful  t« 
the  foundation  of  the  school  at  Middieton  as  well 
as  to  that  at  Bunbury.  His  interest  in  Marple 
was  also  manifested,  evidencing  a  close  intimacy 
with  Marple  Hall.  He  devoted  the  huge  sum  of 
£700  to  maintain  a  free  school  at  Marple.  None 
of  these  bequests,  however,  were  carried  out 
owing  to  his  property  at  the  Restoration  revert- 
ing to  its  former  possessors.  The  concluding  pas- 
sage of  the  will  is  very  noticeable,  being  an 
earnest  and  touching  encouragement  to  his  wife 
(Mary,  daughter  of  one  of  the  Marburys  of  Mar- 
bury  Hill,  Cheshire,  see  under  date  of  October 
21,  1600),  whom  he  very  tenderly  loved.  The 
Judge  had  some  presentiment  when  he  penned 
the  will  that  his  departure  would  precede  hers ; 
and  he  introduces  that  grand  and  familiar 
description  of  the  Almighty  in  Isaiah  as  the 
Guardian  from  generation  to  generation  of  the 
families  of  the  just : — 

I  d'l  lastly  make  my  said  and  well-beloved  and  dear 
wife  my  sole  executor  of  this  my  last  will  and  testap 
ment,  desiring  her  to  put  her  trust  in  Him  who  is  the 
Eock  of  Ages,  and  who  will  be  a  husband  that  cannot 
be  taken  away. 

Judge  Bradshaw's  heir  was  his  nephew  Henry, 
son  of  Colonel  Henry  Bradshaw  (1601-1662),  who 
lived  from  1635  to  1698,  and  he  had  a  special  be- 
quest of  the  Judge's  law  books,  and  such  divinity, 
history,  and  other  books  as  the  executrix  should 
judge  fittest  for  him.

8. — RiCHAPD  THE  SONNE  OF  RiCHABD  BCCKLET  ESQUIEB 
SONNE   AND    HEIEE    OF    Se    RiCHARD    BuCKLEY    OF 

Bewmaeres  in  the  countieof  Anglesea  Knight 
WAS  baptised  the  8th. 

Richard  Bulkeley,  whose  baptism  is  here  given, 
was  the  eldest  son  of  Richard  Bulkeley  and 
Katherine  Needham  his  wife,  and  was  grandson 
to  Sir  Richard  Bulkeley,  Kt.,  of  Beaumaris  and 
Cheadle.  The  second-named  Richard  Bulkeley 
died  before  his  father,  Sir  R'chard ;  and  Mr 
Enrwaker  {East  Cheshire  1-171)  thinks  it  probable 
that,  after  the  death  of  the  latter,  the  Bulkeley 
estates  were  divided,  seeing  that  he  had  to  pro- 
vide for  the  offspring  ©f  two  marriages.  It  is 
supposed  that  the  Cheadle,  Whatcroft,  and  other 
Cheshire  properties  remained  with  the  heirs  of 
Sir  Richard  by  his  first  wife,  the  Beaumaris 
and  Welsh  estates  being  settled  upon  his  heirs  by 
his  second  marriage.  In  1622  Katherine  Bulkeley, 
widow  of  Richard  Bulkeley,  Esquire,  and  the 
mother  of  Richard  whose  baptism  is  given  above, 
petitioned  the  Court  of  Wards  and  Liveries  of  the 
Prince  of  Wales,  as  Earl  of  Chester,  and  was  al- 
lowed to  retain  the  wardship  and  marriage  of  her 
son,  who,  being  under  age,  had  become  a  ward  of 
the  Earl.  A  commission  was  also  issued  to  divide 
into  three  parts  all  the  lands  held  by  the  late 
Richard  Bulkeley.  The  Richard  Bulkeley  whose 
baptism  is  above  recorded  only  lived  to  be  about 
twenty -three  years  of  age,  dying  at  the  PeeJe,  an 
old  moated  house  in  Northen  Etchells,  September 
26, 1633,  and  was  buried  at  Cheadle  the  following 
day.  He  had  married,  about  1630,  Dorothy, 
daughter  of  Sir  Thomas  H-'skias,  of  Oxsted,  co. 
Surrey,  by  whom  he  had  Humphrey  Bulkeley,  a

Richard  Eenyon  was  the  son  of  Richard 
Kenyon  of  Manchester,  and  "  cozen,"  probably 
nephew,  of  George  Kenyon,  of  Kersal,  near  Man- 
chester. He  was  elected  fellow  of  the  Colle- 
giate Church,  Manchester,  in  1601-2,  and  was  in- 
stituted to  the  Vicarage  of  Rochdale  February 
22, 1660-7.  On  his  presentation  to  Stockport  by 
Rev.  John  Langley  he  paid  his  composition  for 
First  Fruits  to  the  Exchequer  at  London,  on  May 
28, 1614,  and  he  held  this  living,  together  with 
that  of  Rochdale,  till  his  death  in  the  following 
year.  The  Rev.  John  Langley,  M.A.,  who  pre- 
sented him,  was  his  friend  and  neighbour  the 
the  rector  of  Prestwich.  There  can  be  no  doubt 
there  was  something  informal  about  his  elec- 
tion, probably  owing  to  the  outlawry  of  John 
Warren,  of  Poynton,  Esquire, the  patron  of  Stock- 
port, for  there  are  still  preserved  at  Chester, 
Letters  Patent  presenting  to  the  rectory  of  Stock- 
port, granted  June  9, 1614,  to  Edward  Doughtie 
on  the  death  of  Richard  Gerard.  Kenyon,  how- 
ever, died  Rector  of  Stockport,  as  proved  by  the 
entry  of  his  burial.

AUGUST,  1616. 
Imp.  The  Steeple  of  the  Chueche  of  Stockpobt 

WAS  BEGUN  to  BE  BUILDED  AXNO  DSI  1612   AXD  IT 

was  finished  the  fibst  day  of  this  instant 
August  Anno  Supeadicto. 

The  tower  of  Stockport  Parish  Church,  here 
recorded  as  having  been  completed,  belonged, 
says  Dr  Heginbotham,  to  no  particular  periud  of 
archiieclure.  Its  summit  was  embattled  and 
ornamented  with  eight  small  crocketed  pinnacles, 
six  of  which  now  surmount  the  entrance  to  the 
burial  ground  in  St.  Mary's-gate.  This  was 
done  when  the  church  was  rebuilt  in  1810-13. 
There  is  a  paiuting  of  the  church  as  it  then 
stood  now  io  the  possession  of  the  Corporation, 
and  painted  by  William  Shuttleworth,  a  Stock- 
port artist ;  an  illustration  cf  it  may  also  be  seen 
in  Dr  Heginbotham's  hist'^ry  of  the  borough.  As 
it  then  stood  the  church  was  of  three  periods ; 
the  chancel  dating  from  c.  1290;  the  nave  from  16th 
century;  and  the  tower  from  1616.    The  tower. 


Stockport  Parisjj  Registers* 


103 


prior  to  1810,  had  a  door  at  the  bottom,  giving 
admission  to  the  ground-floor  of  the  steeple,  and 
through  it  to  the  north  aisle.  The  next  storey 
was  the  ringers'  room,  lighted  on  the  west  by  a 
decorated  window.  Above  this  was  the  room 
containing  the  clock,  furnished  with  a  set  of 
sweet  chimes,  whilst  the  uppermost  storey  was 
the  belfry.  The  roof  was  covered  with  lead,  and 
had  upon  it  an  elaborate  vane,  which,  in  1810, 
was  taken  to  Disley.  About  the  commencement 
of  the  present  century,  a  portion  of  the  tower 
having  given  way,  some  rude  buttresses  were 
erected  to  support  it,  but  in  1805,  the  bells  having 
been  rung  for  several  days  in  succession,  in  cele- 
bration of  Nelson's  great  victory  at  Trafalgar, 
the  old  tower  was  so  shaken  that  it  became  dan- 
gerous. The  bells  were  therefore  seldom  rung 
afterwards,  and  the  last  time  they  were  pealed 
from  that  tower  was  on  October  13th,  1809  at 
the  jubilee  of  George  III.

21, — Henrie  Bridge  of  Bridge  Hall  was  buried  the  2l8t. 

Comparing  this  entry  with  the  particulars  to 
be  found  in  Earwaker's  East  Cheshire  (i-lS5)  re- 
lating to  the  family  of  Bridge,  of  Bridge  Hall, 
Edgeley,  it  would  appear  as  if  he  had  overlooked 
it.  In  a  list  of  freeholders  living  in 
the  Macclesfield  Hundred  in  1579,  occurs  the 
name  of  "  Robert  Bridge,  of  Bridge,  gent."  Mr 
Earwaker  says  he  was  the  last  of  this  family,  the 
estate  passing  to  George  Parker,  who  married  hia 
daughoer.  In  the  above  entry  of  the  buriil  of 
Henry  Bridge,  of  Bridge  Hall,  is  evidence  of  a 
later  member  of  the  family  than  the  one  referred 
to  by  Mr  Earwaker.  Bridge  Hall,  now  a  modern- 
ised farmhouse,  was  owned,  a-  early  as  the  15th 
century,  by  a  family  named  Bridge,  from  whcm 
it  derived  its  name.  In  1504,  when  Sir  Jo!  n 
Percival  founded  and  endowed  the  Macclesfied

Grammar  School,  ono  ot  the  trustees  that  ho 
appointed  was  "John  Bridges,  of  Edgeloy,"  and 
he  also  desired  that  his  "Kynncsman  Maister 
William  Bridges,"  might  bo  elected  the  first 
master  of  the  school,  which  was  accordingly  dnne. 

Dr  Ormerod  thinks  the  family  took  their  name 
from  the  Bridge  over  the  Mersey  at  Stockport, 
of  which  they  had  the  wardship  in  the  fourteen  ili 
century.  The  family  remained  here  many  genera- 
tions as  freeholders,  subsequently  being  found  as 
proprietors  of  Bridge  Hall,  Cheadle.

Edward  Holland  of  Denton,  and  in  commemora- 
tion of  her  marriage  with  Joiin  Arderno  circa 
1598  there  was  executed  and  placed  in  St.  Peter's 
Chapel  of  Stockport  Parish  Church  a  piece  of 
blazonry  that  has  puzzled  not  a  few.  In  1662 
Randle  Holme,  the  Cheshire  antiquary,  visited 
Stockport  Parish  Church  for  the  purpose  of 
noting  the  monuments,  coats  of  arms,  etc.,  in  the 
church  for  his  book  the  Academy  of  Armory, 
printed  at  Chester  in  1688.  He  tells  us  that  at 
that  time  on  *'  a  pillar  in  Mr  Ardorne's  seat," 
painted  on  wood,  were  three  shields  of  arms. 
These  shields  are  still  in  existence,  and  are  now 
(1888)  fixed  to  three  sides  of  the  most  easterly 
pillar  in  the  south  aisle,  and  in  what  was  then 
known  as  St.  Peter's  Chapel.  The  central  ."hield, 
with  the  date  1598,  is  the  Arderne  shield,  with  five 
quarterings  impaling  Holland  of  Denton,  and 
commemorating  the  marriage  of  John  and  Mary 
Arderne.  The  oiher  two  shields  are  :  The  one  on 
the  right  Arderne  impaling  Legh  of  Adington 
and  the  one  on  the  left  Marbury,  of  five  quarter- 
ings, impaling  Arderne.  These  have  reference  to 
the  marriage  of  a  son  and  daughter  of  John 
Arderne's  with  members  of  the  families  of  Legh 
of  Adlington  and  Marbury  of  Marbury  respec-

youngest  daughter  of  Henry  Arderne  of  Harden

Thomas  Legh,  of  Adlington),  and  grand-daught«r 
to  Mary  Arderne  whose  burial  is  given  urjder  May

father,  died  November  2, 1623,  and  was  buried  at 
Stockport  on  November  4.  On  September  28, 
1627,  his  widow  Margaret  married  at  .S'.ockport 
William  Davenport,  of  Bramall,  and  on  the  same

carded  above,  and  being  a  little  over  eight  years 
old,  was  also  married  at  Stockport  to  William 
Davenport  of  Bramall  (baptised  at  Stockport 
February  3,  1610-11),  son  and  heir  to  the  last

This  entry  in  the  Stockport  Parish  Registers 
undoubtedly  ranks  next  in  interest  with  that  re- 
cording the  baptism  of  President  Bradshaw,  with 
whom  Dukinfield  lived  contemporary,  and  like 
wise  a  staunch  adherent  to  the  cause  of  the  Par- 
liament during  the  Civil  War.  His  father 
Robert  Dukiufield,  of  Dukinfield,  was  baptised 
at  Aghton-under-Lyne,  August  14, 1597,  and  was 
buried  at  Stockport,  August  30,  1630,  having 
married  Frances,  daughter  of  George  Preston,  of 
Ho)ker,  co.  Lane,  Esquire,  at  Cartmel  Church, 
August  23, 16 18.  At  the  time  of  his  father's 
death  in  1630,  Robert  Dukinfield  was  eleven  years 
old,  and  at  the  outbreak  of  the  Civil  War  in 
1642,  he  was  but  little  more  than  a 
youth.  Nevertheless,  he  was,  says  Mr 
Earwaker  (East  Cheshire  ii-13)  appointed 
one  of  the  Commissioners  for  Cheshire  for  se- 
questering the  estates  of  the  delinquents,  and  for 
raising  money  for  the  Parliament.  In  February, 
1643-4  he  attacked  and  t<i)ok  Wythenshawe  Hall, 
and  on  May  25,  1644,  he,  together  with  Colonel 
Henry  Mainwaring,  commanded  the  forces  sent 
to  guard  Stockport,  and  prevent  Prince  Rupert's 
march  into  Lancashire.  From  a  letter  preserved 
in  the  Egerton  MSS.  in  the  British  Museum,  and 
written  by  him  from  Dukinfield,  April  5,  1645,  it 
appears  that  in  the  previous  winter  he  and  bis 
troops  had  served  at  the  siege  of  Beeston  Castle 
and  in  Wiiral,  and  that  he  was  much  pressed  for 
money  to  pay  his  men.  In  the  proceedings  of  the 
House  of  Commons,  May  24, 1648,  it  is  mentioned 
that  he  had  held  a  meeting  with  the  gentlemen  of 
Cheshire,  and  had  promised  to  raise  three  regi- 
ments of  foot  and  one  of  horse. 

In  1649  he  was  High  Sheriff  of  Cheshire,  and 
in  the  following  year  was  appointed  Governor  of 
Chester,  and  in  that  capacity  was  directed  by 
Parliament  to  summon  the  Court  Martial  for  the 
trial  of  the  Earl  of  Derby,  Sir  Timothy  Fether- 
fitonhaugh  and  Captain  John  Benbow,  at  Chester 


in  September,  1651.  The  Court  Martial  was  held 
Septcmtjcr  29,  1651,  and  with  Colonel  Dukin- 
field sat  Colonel  Henry  Bra/Jshaw  and 
Lieutenant-colonel  Newtori,  of  Newtfjc-in-Lo.  „- 
dendale.  It  is  said  that  a  pardon  was  granted 
to  the  Karl  of  Derby,  and  entru-*tt-d  to  Colonel 
Dukinfield,  who  so  arranged  that  it,  should  reach 
Bolton  too  late,  but  there  is  little  or  no  reason  for 
believing  this  siory.  In  the  spring  of  1C32, 
Colonel  Dukinfield  proceeded  to  the  Isle  of  M^nn, 
and  by  '.he  aid  of  treachery  succeeded  in  reducing 
the  island  and  taking  the  Countess  of  Darby  aiid 
her  children  prisoners,  for  which  he  and  Colonel 
Birch  received  the  thanks  oi  Parliament.  In  s 
very  interesting  letter,  written  by  the  Earl  of 
Derby,  from  Chester,  shortly  before  his  death, 
and  addressed  to  his  wife,  then  at  the  Isle  of 
Mann,  he  aivises  Ler  to  make  the  best  conditions 
she  can  "  with  Colonel  Dukinfield,  who,  being  so 
much  a  gentleman  born,  will  doubtless  for  bis 
own  honour  deal  fairly  with  you." 

In  1653,  Colonel  Dukinfield  was  returned  as  ore 
of  the  members  of  Parliament  for  Cheshire,  and 
was  placed  on  Cromwell's  council  in  July  that 
year.  Some  years  later,  in  1659,  he  was  asso- 
ciated with  General  Lambert  in  suppressing  J^ir 
George  Booth's  f  imous  "  Cheshire  Rising  "  in 
favour  of  the  exiled  princes.  After  the  restora- 
tion of  Charles  II.,  he  was  tried  as  one  of  the 
court  martial  of  the  Earl  of  Derby,  and  it  is 
stated  that  he  was  imprisoned  in  the  country  on 
some  charge  of  being  concerned  with  others  in  a 
plot  to  seize  the  King  and  restore  the  Parliament 

Colonel  Dukinfield  appears  to  have  resided  at 
Dukinfield  Hall,  Dukinfield,  and  as  a  staunch 
Puritan  was  one  of  the  leaders  of  Nonconformity 
in  the  North  of  England.  He  died  September  18, 
1689,  aged  70  years,  and  was  buried  at  Dentcn. 
A  tombstone  beariBg  the  following  inscription  is 
BOW  placed  on  the  s^uth  side  of  Dukinfield 
Chapel : — 

Colonel  Robert  Dukinfield,  of  Dukinfield,  Esquire, 
who  died  September  18th,  1689,  aged  abeut  SO  years 
and  was  buried  at  Denton  Ctiapel.  And  here  lye  the 
remains  of  Juditfi,  his  Relict,  who  died  Febrnar 
23rd,  1738-9,  aged  86  years.  And  also  the  remains  of 
John  Dukinfield,  their  son,  who  died  Octol)er  25th, 
1762,  aged  76  years. 

The  most  prominent  historians  of  our  county 
have  dropped  into  error  with  respect  to  the  birth 
or  baptism  and  death  of  Colonel  Dukinfield.  The 
Rev.  John  Watson,  M.A.,  F.S  A.,  rector  of  Ftock- 
port  (1769-1783),  in  the  MSS.  known  by  his 
n>»me,  says  the  Colonel  Dukinfield  was  born 
August  28,  1619.  Helsby's  edition  of  Ormerod 
corrects  this,  and  says  that  baptised  is  meint, 
Mr  Earwaker  also  records  his  baptisms  as  August

28,  instead  of  September  28,  1619.  In  the  first 
edition  of  Ormerod  it  ia  stated  that  Colonel  Dukin- 
field's  death  occurred  before  1665,  when  his  eon 
•was  knighted  by  Charles  II.  That  Sir  Robert 
Dukinfield  was  knighted  during  the  lifetinae  of 
his  father  there  is  conclusive  proof,  the  two  here 
given  being  extracted  from  the  Nonconformist 
Register  kept  by  the  Rev.  Oliver  Heywood,  of 
Coley,  Yorkshire,  and  son-in-law  of  Rev.  Samuel 
Angier,  of  Denton. 

1678.  Colonel  Duckinfield,  of  Duckinfield,  and 
Judith,  Nathl.  Bottornleys  daughter,  near  Peniston,

dying  of  childbed  the  same  week. 

1689.  Old  Colonel  Dukinfield  (Sir  Robert  ffather) 
died  Sep.,  aged  74.    A  useful  man, 

When  Colonel  Dukinfield  died  in  1689  he  was  just 
completing  the  allotted  span  of  human  life^ 
threescore  years  and  ten,  and  not  eighty  years  as 
recorded  on  the  tablet  at  Dukinfield  Chapel. 

Colonel  Dukinfield  was  twice  married.  His 
first  wife  was  Martha,  daughter  of  Sir  Miles 
Fleetwood,  of  Hesketh  co..  Lane,  Knt. ;  married 
c  1640,  and  by  whom  he  had  four  sons  and  four 
daughters.  She  died  October  2,  1669,  and  on 
August  20, 1678,  he  married  for  his  second  wife 
Judith,  daughter  of  Nathaniel  Bottomley,  of  Caw- 
thorne,  near  Barnsley,  co.  York,  by  whom  he  had 
four  sons  and  two  daughters.  She  died  February 
23, 1738-9,  and  was  buried  at  Dukinfield.
